Paige has always had a fondness for riding in the cars, but lately she's insisted on "driving" almost every time we park. Sometimes moreso than others, and other times not so insistent, but we have time to indulge her. This was one of those indulge times.
Marna is recovering from a cold, and needed some "down time" for a nap, so dad took a couple hours off work to hang with Paige. She was already in the car when I came on my "shift" so I just let her keep playing. She stayed in there almost an entire hour. She pushed and moved buttons, explored nooks and crannies, and generally made her way around the interior.
After a while she got bored or tired, which one I'm not sure, but we landed back inside watching Signing Time. And for reference, it was a cool day and the car was in the garage, with the parking brake on and all the windows open. No car keys were involved in the making of this picture.
I was playing with my camera in the car and took this picture in the rearview mirror just for fun. Of course the image was backwards so I revered it. ;P

Jelly Bean, seen in the rear view mirror, is the leader of our Wheaten Terrier pack of two. The only times we keep Bella Grace and Jelly Bean separated is during our daily run for coffee and doggy treats.

You are invited to stay and browse through my photostream. Here's a quick index to my Flickr site:
Central Illinois (except Springfield): Central Illinois (except Springfield): Photos relating to the middle section of the "Land of Lincoln" (except for the Capital City of Springfield) may be found in this collection. Every city and town I've photographed is contained within its own set, and rural (as in "counrtyside") photographs are grouped by county.
Springfield, Illinois: All of my photographs of Springfield and the Abraham Lincoln Sites are in this collection. For the City of Springfield, there are separate sets for the Capitol Complex, Downtown (including the Old State Capitol), Neighborhoods, Parks, Illinois State Fairgrounds (and past State Fairs), and more. Photographs of Lincoln sites include the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum, Lincoln Home National Historic Site, Lincoln Tomb, and so on. Also in the Lincoln "All About Abe" (Set) are a few Lincoln sites not located in Springfield.
Beyond Central Illinois: Other locales in the United States and Canada including New York, Chicago, San Francisco and Seattle.
In addition to my location-based sets, here are links to some "topical" collections and sets I've put together:
Automobile Photographs: This is a very large collection of images whose primary, but not exclusive, focus is on American automotive classics. Images are organized by decade, by manufacturer, and by topics (such as convertibles, station wagons, muscle cars, etc.)
Barbers & Barber Shops: Traditional barbers and barber shops are on the endangered species list. But there are still plenty to be found if you go looking for them.
Almost Everything Else. Check It Out!!!: Included topics range from man's first walk on the moon to small town schools and churches, and from Soft-Coated Wheaten Terriers (our favorite breed) to things that are abandoned, neglected, weathered, or rusty.

Back when I was still interested in taking a self portrait every day, I thought this would be an interesting one. Wish I'd gotten some ocean in the background but hey, what are you gonna do?
At 45, sometimes you look back and your not sure how you got here and your not very happy with what you see.
Another photo from the summer that I never posted. This is the Howard platform, which is currently being remodeled. In the reflection you can see the beams of the new overhang they're building, to replace the old one that this mirror is hanging from.
